I drive both, and the EZ30R has a good top end, the valve timing is good at the top rpms, 10mm lift, inlet closes at 73* ABDC. Compared to the EG33's 7mm lift and closes 54*ABDC but it lacks the Resonate system that boosts the top end of the EG33.
It lacks the strong wide torque curve of the EG33. The 5 speed auto makes up for it a bit, but the EG33 has the best overall performance.
